Geology and geochemistry in sedimentary basins have been established sciences for centuries. Important textbooks, such as Tissot and Welte (1984); Hunt (1996); Gluyas and Swarbrick (2004); Peters et al. (2005); Allen and Allen (2005), summarize the knowledge especially related to petroleum geosciences.
